AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2010 Ford Focus passed its most recent MOT on 27 March 2026 at 199,349 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy as of that test. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the available record, with three consecutive passes in 2024, 2025, and 2026 and no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. Mileage stands at 199,349 against a 16-year lifespan, averaging roughly 12,459 miles per year and placing this car firmly in high-use territory for its age. The record shows steady annual accumulation: 178,979 miles on 4 April 2024, 188,406 on 27 March 2025, and 199,349 on 27 March 2026. No gaps or sudden jumps appear. The DVSA data is sparse and clean, with every test either passing or failing on administrative grounds rather than mechanical defect. Two failures dated 3 April 2024 and 27 March 2026 both list no defects at identical mileages to the subsequent passes, indicating paperwork or presentation issues at the test centre rather than worn components. Because the history never recorded corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns, the previous owner appears to have kept basic statutory testing current without neglected consumable intervals showing up formally. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity, coil springs, and binding calipers given the high mileage and age. The absence of advisories across 21,370 miles of recent use does not certify component life; at near 200,000 miles the drivetrain and suspension mountings warrant hands-on checks the MOT record cannot supply.
